We have hundreds of writing prompts / story starters for kids for nearly every occasion and season. Here’s two brand new sets of writing worksheets to help your students discuss the priorities and benefits of taking care of our environment. The first set of 8 is for Earth Day, which was founded in 1970 as a movement to end pollution. In the last few years, the organization has put a more specific focus on ending plastic pollution. This has become one of the most detrimental things to happen to our environment, especially in our oceans. Recently a disturbing video from a sea diver filming plastic pollution in the ocean near Bali went viral. We think every child should see this!
